SEC DANIELS
IS BLAMED FOR
UNREADINESS
WASHINGTON, April 1. The navy
was unprepared for war in 1917 be
cause of the "mental and tempera-
mental characteristics of the man at
Its head and of the policy he pursued
as the result of those characteris
tics," Rear Admiral Bradley A FIske
retired, declared today before the sen
ate committee Investigating the
navy's conduct of the war.
'To prevent unpreparednesB In the
future," Admiral Flske said, "the
most important step is for the public
to Insist that the man at the head
of the navy shall be Imbued with the
spirit of the navy, highly educated,
open-minded and acquainted with the
principles on which naval prepared
ness is based and by following .which
preparedness can be secured."
Admiral Flake was aide for oper
ations and senior adviser to the sec
retary of the navy for several years
before the United States entered the
war, but resigned s aide after dif
ferences with the secretary regarding
the abolition of wine on warehips and
over preparedness.
The admiral told the .committee the
navy was not only unprepared for
war from 1915 to 1917 from a stand)-
point of material and personnel, but
lacked any well prepared war plan
It was not until August 1, 1917, that
the navy department established an
organization for the exclusive duty of
making plans for war, he said, al
though he and other officers had
urged such an organization for sever
al years.
